Animals in the summer are very susceptible to heat stroke, dehydration, and maggot infestations. If your dog or cat is outdoors most of the time, it is essential to have a nice shaded area to lie in and plenty of water to drink. Some people ask about shaving their animals; if they have access to a pond or pool, or just watering your animal with a hose will help with cooling. Remember, dogs and cats can't sweat, they pant to keep cool.

Parasites can infect your pet any time of year.

In winter, by contrast, we need MORE thyroid hormone to stimulate our metabolism to produce more heat to maintain our internal body temperature within narrow limits. It is not that the thyroid is more efficient in the summer months, it is just that a failing thyroid will produce enough thyroid hormone until the winter comes.
